equipment may not be shielded against the RF
signals from your wireless phone.
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association
recommends that a minimum separation of six (6”)
inches be maintained between a handheld
wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid
potential interference with the pacemaker. These
recommendations are consistent with the
independent research by and recommendations of
Wireless Technology Research.
Persons with pacemakers:
•
Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than
six inches from their pacemaker when the
phone is turned ON
•
Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket
•
Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to
minimize the potential for interference
•
If you have any reason to suspect that
interference is taking place, turn your phone
OFF immediately.
Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with
some hearing aids. In the event of such
interference, you may want to consult your service
provider (or call the customer service line to
discuss alternatives).
